The addition of nuts, pumpkin seeds, wholemeal pasta is what your body need. Pumpkin pasta can be prepared using a special vegetable grater or you can simply buy spiralised pumpkin in the shop. Of course, you can also simply cut the pumpkin on the grater.

Low carbohydrate breakfast. Fast, thin one egg omelette.


Lately this is my favourite breakfast. Frying such a thin omelette is very quick. It is prepared literally in a minute. If the pan is well warmed up, the eggs are cut off almost immediately. With a little butter taste perfectly. Served with vegetables such as radishes, peppers, cucumbers, tomatoes or avocados can be low-carbohydrate and rich in protein meal.

Ingredients:
2 eggs
a teaspoon of butter
salt, pepper

Method:
In a bowl, lightly beat the egg with salt, pepper using fork. Pour on a hot pan with melted butter. Fry until the eggs are cut. Then fry another egg (you do not have to use extra butter because the pan will still have some fat after the previous omelette

Roasted corn, idea for a tasty dinner.


Corn reminds me of the end of the summer. Corn contains about 86kcal / 100g and is a good source of B vitamins, thiamine, niacin and folate. You can add your favourite spices (I add some chillies) and cheese. Cheese makes this meal nutritious and have good balance between carbohydrates, proteins and fats. Instead of yellow cheese, you can use feta cheese. It can be crushed immediately after baking

Ingredients:

  • 4 corn cobs
  • 50g of yellow cheese
  • chilli, salt
  • watercress


Method:

Cook the corn until it soften. Sometimes it takes 15 minutes sometimes an hour. Then place on a baking tray and sprinkle with spices and grated yellow cheese. Cook until cheese melts. In the end sprinkle with herbs.
